Bright Horizons Teddies Day Nursery and Preschool

Our daughter has been coming to Teddies since 11-months-old, and she is now nearly 4! At all stages, the staff have been kind and caring and made the nursery an enjoyable experience. We value the feedback given and the advice given when asked. We will miss all the staff and friends we have made over the last three years.

The staff are very professional and friendly with the children. They can see when a child is upset and don't hesitate to go to them for cuddles and to talk to them. The staff always contact parents if they have any concerns about the child and also advise parents when they have concerns about their child, which always puts the parents at ease.

Bright Horizons Teddies is a brilliant place with staff who care deeply about the children. I have two kids there and I feel confident that they are well looked after, well stimulated educationally and really well supported emotionally. It’s a warm and friendly place where my kids are thriving!

Having just moved to the area, we were worried about moving our little boy to a new nursery - but we didn’t need to. The preschool staff at Teddies have made him feel so welcome and he’s loving his new nursery class. The staff are all really friendly and the facilities are great, with plenty of time for the children to be outside in the garden.

We are really happy with our experience at Teddies! The staff have been very friendly and taken such good care of our daughter who is happy and settled on her days at Teddies. It has been wonderful to see her grow and develop since she started. Thank you!

We have been delighted with the care of our two children (3) and (1). The staff at Bright Horizons Teddies Day Nursery and Preschool have been highly supportive and flexible to our specific needs. Our children feel safe and secure and have formed close bonds with nursery staff and children alike. We have felt overwhelmed with the kindness offered to us in support of our youngest daughter who has had an ongoing health problem requiring very specific adaptations.

Teddies Bright Horizons is a lovely nursery. Our son (2.5) really enjoys going there. The staff are all very friendly. We recently had a parent conference, and it was very professional and inciteful. We receive useful communications via email from Bright Horizons and get a written and short chat at the gate on pick-up. The staff have been very supportive with potty training. The nursery is very interested in children's development and interests at home and asks for updates on this. The nursery provided home learning resources throughout lockdown and beyond.

My daughter loves attending Teddies Day Care in Sheffield. The staff provide a range of learning through play activities and are always fully engaged with the children. The staff know my daughter extremely well and are aware of her likes, dislikes, strengths and skills the things she is continuously working towards. Excellent daycare facility.

We love Teddies Day Nursery for its quality and flexibility. The only area where it lacks is the lack of a garden/green outdoor space. The property does have space for a garden, the 'wasted' space between the wooden gate and the metal gate could be turned into a grassy area for the kids to play on.

Our son loves going to Teddies. He always has a smile on his face when we pick him up and when we ask him about his day. He gets on very well with his 'teachers'. They all seem very caring and compassionate. He enjoys the full range of activities including singing, dancing, and messing around outdoors with his friends.

My son was so excited to be able to go back to preschool and see all his friends and teachers again. He comes home happy and exhausted from having had "too much fun". The current Covid practices of welcoming you at the gate for drop off, and bringing my son down at the end of the day works well, and the information sheet of the daily activities is informative. We moved to Teddies two years ago following the closure of our first nursery, and my son felt at home straight away. We were concerned about the smaller outdoor space, but it is used frequently and cleverly so we needn't have worried. The building has been newly refurbished and they regularly update displays and the different areas with new activities and themes. The teachers are enthusiastic and recognised my son's interests and character quickly. He is currently doing extremely well with his numbers, letters and words and is leaving the nursery excited for starting school.

Our twins have been at Teddies from when they were around 18 months until starting school, so we have experience of both the toddler and the preschool rooms. We've been really impressed with how much they've loved nursery and what they've learnt - they're sad to be leaving. All the staff are exceptional - so friendly and fun and welcoming - and I know both our kids feel cared for while they're there. A really positive atmosphere and a great nursery, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

We loved Teddies! My son learnt so much during his time at Teddies. His social skills have improved dramatically. All the teachers are highly skilled and my son loved them all dearly. The only thing that needs improving is the website parent portal it is hard to log into (email with code very delayed) and the invoices are listed all together very hard to read.

I have had 2 children come to Teddies. We have had such a positive experience throughout our years here. The staff are excellent in their roles and have supported and looked after both our children with such care and enthusiasm. We, as parents, have felt included and supported throughout their journey at nursery. Our children have grown in their social skills and confidence and are always happy to attend nursery. They have made great friends and are so ready for school due to the consistent efforts of the lovely staff at Teddies Day Nursery.

Thank you all, a lovely environment to see our wonderful little people to grow and develop in.

What a fabulous place for our son to have grown into the cheeky character he is today!

Sending our little boy to this nursery has been the best decision.

The staff offered advice about development and play at home and were very friendly. The lunch provided was excellent.

Our 16 month old son has been at this nursery for 5 months and really enjoys it, he gets on very well with his carers. His carers all know him very well and clearly show a lot of interest in him and care for him. We also very recently sampled the food which was delicious. Overall, we have been very impressed with the team here and the facilities.

Teddies is a wonderful nursery and I have no hesitation in recommending it to prospective parents and children. The staff are genuinely interested in maximising what the children get out of the day, they tailor activities to support emerging interests. They are constantly looking at new songs/activities to do and are friendly and responsive. My son has a wonderful time there.
